A good specification includes: composition (for example 100% cotton or a polyester blend), yarn count if you know it, knit structure (single jersey, piqué, french terry and so on), weight in GSM, width (tubular or open), the desired finish, colour (card code, Pantone or sample), quantity in kg and the end use.
The more precise you are, the more comparable the quotes become and the fewer surprises you risk. If you are unsure, send a reference sample and say what the fabric will be used for; the supplier can help you fill in the rest.
